![Best Small Towns in New England to Live [or buy a home]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/WDybFESNFA0/mqdefault.jpg)
I’m from out of state Pennsylvania. Ok m attending school in Connecticut so far I like it. Nice trees nice beaches.
Ty I agree are you at UCONN?
Where in Greenwich do you find rent for 1800 bucks you mean for a garage
Relocated to Connecticut from California less then a year ago, and I really like it here.
😂

I lived in Byron, a low-end part of Greenwich, 15+ years ago. Rent for a room with bathroom privileges was $650 at the time. Much more now I am sure. Just assume Fairfield County is part of New York and priced that way.
Did the writer of this video visit a pot dispensary before producing this? I like Connecticut but this vid makes insane assertions about affordability, surfing(???), among other things.
Loved Connecticut grew up there in North Windham close to UCONN, lovely area, yes tax’s were high but I miss by beloved state, I’m in Houston and talk about a hell hole here it is. I’ve bought a house and have a colony of cats as well as my inside fur children with an 80 year old husband no chance of going back😿💔😿But my ashes will be brought back to Hampton Beach and out into the ocean with my crem😢fur children, never to stay in Texas 🦇
Very good job ❤❤❤
Low living costs and affordable housing? Thats not the ct I live in.
Exactly!
These people vote blue every year that’s the problem
“No the taxes are high”
Excuse me but who did you vote for? Don’t be surprised my amigo
Didn’t see any mentions of places in Windham, Tolland, and New London counties, all on the eastern side. Somewhat more rural, and less big city congestion.
Do not go by this video by any means. Affordable housing are you kidding me? Low cost to live are you kidding me? How about taxes on everything. We pay taxes on our taxes. I'm just astounded with this video and I haven't even gotten past the first part. Do not go by this video
Some people are just not sharp
Crayon eaters is what I call em though don’t get that mixed up with marines lol
This video is made by someone who is…well not sharp
Most people in CT would rate Greenwich and Old Greenwich at the top of the list. Westport would rank very highly as well. Prices cited here seem extremely low and long-outdated compared to more recent prices cited elsewhere.
Thank You
These are the wealthy towns. No one who actually resides in CT can afford these places
Born and bred in Fairfield CT. Grew up with the obnoxious and pretentious. Don't get me wrong I knew how to play the game but I decided I wanted my children to know reality. They needed to know that showing up to the school parking lot in a hand me down BMW or Mercedes was not necessary or having to wear designer clothes for school. We moved and they learned what the real world was all about.
I wondered about Stratford.
I'm seeing this in more and more videos. The footage of Greenwhich showing skyscrapers in the background and neoclassical architecture in the foreground is NOT anywhere in CT or anywhere close to Connecticut.
Low cost of living?! We are talking about CT, right? The Connecticut River is on the eastern boundary of Glastonbury, not “ makes up the western boundary.” And dividing one town, Greenwich, into 3 entries on the Top 10, makes sense, if your family’s annual income averages 115K and you can afford a home at a minimum of 1 Million. However, this video offers sensible options, generally in the Hartford metro area: Glastonbury, Simsbury and, for a little more expense, West Hartford. One Fairfield County option, Ridgefield, is also a good option. I know less about Avon, but I would guess it would be a fine option too, and nothing about Weapogue, except it’s likely in Litchfield County. All in all, a fine video for those needing to live in the NYC area or in CT. I am a CT native, but even having lived in Houston and Austin, among other quality locations like Austin, I wouldn’t consider the state affordable if the family makes under 6 figures annually.
I use to think CT was expensive. And it is. But then I lived elsewhere and saw other states being JUST if not MORE expensive with the added insanity of filth, crime, traffic, weird/insane people and horrible school systems. I use to get bored of the predictability of CT until I didn’t have that anymore and now I long for a quiet street where I can take walks with my wife or ride bikes with my kids without having to worry about getting mugged or stepping on needles…there is definitely better places and cheaper places, but as a college educated male with a grad school degree, having experienced big city living and other locations CT is actually not that bad. I wouldn’t move to Hartford or Bridgeport, lol, but South Eastern CT is truly a gem. I say even New London is a walk in the park when compared to other locations. If I could, I would say he Carolinas or Virginia (away from DC) is the sweet stop. Utah was also beautiful and fairly cheap until the Californians took over and low key ruined it. Trust me, if you wanna complain about high taxes or whatever else regarding CT, you can try living in CA, CO, NY, NJ or even MA and you’ll change your mind fairly quickly.
Weather and ambiance is key. You don’t deal with fires, mudslides, hail or tornadoes….it’s also not truly a harsh winter location or a extremely hot summer location CT is located strategically between to major cities. It has great school systems and a slower pace of living.
Ultimately, I want my kids to have the calm life I had growing up and that’s why we are moving back and leaving the west for good.
But again, to each their own 🤷🏻♂️
I'm sort of in your boat. I'm in the west currently and have grown tired of Californians ruining everything. We have been thinking about Virginia. NJ and CT. We want to raise a family. Any recommendations on towns/cities in those states?
❤❤❤
@@anthonys.8569why CT
This place has nothing to offer besides some nice colleges
You come here for education then leave immediately
2:26, that’s London Greenwich.
❤❤
There are plenty of nice towns in the state that are affordable. Shelton, Milford, Southington, and Wallingford are a few. If someone has money, but not Westport money, try Fairfield, Trumbull, and Monroe. Also, why didn't Westport at least make the list? As for Greenwich I will give them this, it's nice they have a public housing unit. New Canaan, Westport, and Darien should do the same.
Is it easy to make a new freinds in ct?😊
What propaganda!! The so called best places to live in CT are super expensive. So was this video for rich people only? And by the way, the towns that were left out include some of the nicest... Essex was awarded "best town to live in the US" not too long ago. Old Saybrook is a great place to live. There are several other great beach towns east of Branford that are not in the New York suburbs... and they are less expensive than the towns in this video.
Ikr ridiculous! CT is just the California of New England
Canterbary
This video is TOTALY inaccurate ! The images of Greenwich are from some COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PLACE! (Maybe Greenwich England perhaps?)
Your spelling of 'TOTALLY', i.e. "TOTALY" is 'TOTALLY inaccurate'.
The photograph at circa one minute and fifty-two seconds is NOT:
Greenwich, Connecticut.
The referenced photograph is of:
Greenwich, London, United Kingdom.
PLEASE CORRECT THIS ERROR.
Westport has left the chat
Here in Montréal Canada it is very hard to makr freinds 😢
I lived here 8 years. This video is way off for prices
WAY OFF - this is obviously made by someone who doesn't know CT!
Almost all of your towns are in the same county or location "Fairfield County" Branch out.. Head out to Mystic, Stonington or Washington CT..Not a great tribute to CT
I have an apartment in Greenwich, and gave up on this video when you showed pictures of another city altogether. Please redo!
Mmmm oky🎉😮
06105...go there.
Anybody else think it’s weird Connecticut is spelled like “connect , I , cut “ 😂😂😂😂😂
I grew up in west Hartford, nice town BUT the people are STUCK UP taxes are UNBELIEVABLY HIGH. STAY away unless you are crazy rich
Conard grad

@@timothysullivan4130 14, definitely
@@timothysullivan4130 lol they changed it now
I wich am ther in ct❤
Ct is great tho
If your worth millions sure otherwise your screwed
lol ur not wrong😭😭😭😭
i have been living in CT for 1/4 century - well insane i said that and insane i did it. lived in several towns including Glastonbury, and travelled to about 100 towns out of 169 towns (stopping for gas not counted). i would say CT is a decent place to grow a family, and most of the towns are good places to live. just avoid the cities.
Even Hartford is good?
well, try to avoid living in Hartford. you should have plenty of other choices in suburban@@lola133174
@@lola133174 it’s terrible don’t come here unless your looking to be miserable and have your money stolen 5 ways.
Don’t recommend unless your worth millions
This is awful video. The images of Greenwich england? And other images that aren't NYC? Where are these images from? Riverside is Greenwich, it's not separate, just pretentious. It's like Queens NY, where Astoria, flushing, etc where the neighborhoods have to have their own name and postal things.
we'll fix it soon! sorry for inconvenience
Aerial of Tod's Point and The Cove were close to the beginning. 0:22
3 of these are just greenwich
If the Auto Industry asked you to
park outside your neighbor's window
every day and Honkkkk would you?
Would you do it in the middle of the
night?
Please! then lock your vehicles quietly
with flash no Honkkk.
A Honk is a Honk is Honk.
HOW: Press lock and unlock on fob for
2-4 seconds. Hazards should flash
to show Honk is off.
Contact your dealer's service as needed
as some vehicles might be different>
Thank you.
Hilarious that Westport isn’t on the list
This is connecticut….. you can put atleast 80 towns on this list
@@travelandeats8518 Westport Should 100% be in the top 10. This list is horrible
That’s Greenwich England
From someone who was born and raised in CT, unless you are making a six-figure salary, DO NOT move there. Taxes are high, CT natives are rude, I95 and Route 8 are terrible, the cities (especially Bridgeport) are not safe, and there’s just not much to do. The Foxwoods casino is in the middle of nowhere, no major league sports teams, the beaches look disgusting by the Long Island Sound, and the only decent inexpensive food up there is pizza. I will say the education I received there in grade school was good, but after college I was done with CT. No thanks
I disagree...it is a beautiful state...but it is livable and you can find a lot of homes around $ 180.000, in nice areas...New London area is quite nice...like everywhere else there are EXPENCIVE and less EXPENCIVE places...this video is not giving the correct info...VERY misleading...
I love in CT and it isn’t a bad state to live in. I personally think that this is one of the most prosperous states to live in and there are worse places to live in. Sure the taxes aren’t ideal and the weather can be bad but we have some great cities and some good tourist attractions. However, while you disagree with my thoughts, I respect your opinion.
Been here 26 years born and raised- spot on
Seems like there’s no place to live in whole United States everywhere is expensive . Even isolated towns in Kentucky 😂😂
I respectfully disagree. I was raised and grew up in south eastern CT. In HS everyone talked about what adventures they would have in college. I decided to take the leap and move west. I attended a top school out west and had a great time but after graduation stayed in various western states only to see that it wasn’t “great” it was just “okay”. Then I got married and started to think about kids….I saw that the once reliable, quiet and predictable life I was running away from in CT was actually AMAZING. If I ever got bored I could just doze myself with some chaos from Boston or NYC. But I never perpetually lived in the chaos so my quality of life was amazing. I felt safe as a child, I didn’t have to worry about stepping in filth. I felt safe as a teen…the most dangerous thing we did was walk along the train tracks towards Norwich state Hospital and try to break in… (lol). It was a boring life, yes. But it was a healthier life. I guess you don’t truly see the blessing of small town community until it is gone. Also, there’s lots to do if you are not a city folk. But if you are….then I get it…it would seem dead to you. One thing that does hurt me a little is seeing the malls closing. That’s sad. But overall, CT is a gem in my eyes. Specially the summers. Can’t beat the New England summers.
Albeit, it I could move somewhere else besides CT it would be the Carolina’s or Virginia. But that’s just me.
Low living cost? What are you smoking!!!
Crack
Ha what a joke, taxes will be more than the mortgage payment. I've live 1/2 my life struggling there. I feel for my children in their 30s working two and 3 jobs to keep up.
Then I see people say this place is great, yeah right
Some people are absolutely ridiculously delusional
This information is completely outdated - rentals are much higher than stated and they left out FAIRFIELD which is the best town in CT!
My rules are: 1) the town remains unknown by staying out of the news, and 2) they don't trash talk other towns following the same rule. Sure, there's FCIAC competition but that's local.
Im gona play loto max this week😢with 3 million$ i wii get a nice house in cunnectucut 😂❤ pray god for me please ❤❤❤❤❤❤
The cops should get investigated, and I don't mean by themselves.
#standwithkedricktheheadtrip
A victim was forced back into a group home because the abusers track the victims' phones, now a crooked cop rapes her for trying to escape the group home. Andrew Lindberg rapes her.
The cops apparently have the highest rate of domestic violence of any "profession".
I (Kedrick the Head Trip ) was subjected to retaliation twice for calling out abusers who tracked a woman's phone to force her back into a group home.
Out of respect for the victim, I won't say her name. The abuse at Gilead Community "Services" is so severe, a woman was forced back there by the predators who tracked her phone. I risked my life to protect her from the police. If not, they would've dragged her into an ambulance. I know she would never consent to any "relationship" with a police officer and that would still be inappropriate even if she claimed to consent. The police are notoriously abusive to women. The abusive staff members allow a crooked cop to exploit an #autistic woman for trying to escape the group home racket and #psychiatry.
#ibelieveher #metoo #metoomovement #ActuallyAutistic #BlueLivesMurder
Note : I deleted posts with the victim's name in them. I'm not about to desist from condemning the abusers.
A predator with blue privilege (sp?) retaliated.
Andrew Lindberg is at least 1 of the crooked cops violating the aforementioned woman. She can't be unaware of the domestic violence by the police. Therefore, she doesn't consent to them touching her in any manner.
The MIddletown police covered their own asses.
If enough ppl see my posts, Lindberg will be brought to justice.
@GileadCommunitySrv
The CEO, Justin Salvio, interrupted me to question my intentions to shift the blame to me when I condemned him for abusing residents; including the one I risked my life to protect. He said some crap about the "clients fleeing from abusive male partners" like he forgot that the aforementioned woman fled from a group home again and sought my help escaping the group home racket. I didn't abuse her, the staff members at the group home abused her.
The victim would never willingly side with the predators who track her phone to abduct her and force her back into thr group home racket. They won't let her tell the truth, and neither will Lindberg.

The whole state needs refurbishing
Problem here is that the people here are too stuck up and incompetent to change
There are no good places to live in that state .
CT is awful. Moving to CT is the biggest mistake you'll ever make.
Is it the whole state or just specific places in the state?
@@enzerabowenzu5340 It's a very expensive place to live. High taxes, horribly dull and yet it's quite a rat race. In Fairfield county people are arrogant and within 15 minutes of meeting someone they want you to know they have more money than you.
@@Corkfish1 West Hartford is just as bad. I grew up there, you couldn't pay me to live there again. Wayy too snooty.
@Anthony Mercado too bad most of those places are not convenient. And how many times can you go to Mystic? I always thought it was highly overrated. Perhaps that's why Gallup polls showed CT to be among the top two states residents most wanted to leave. CNBC just ranked it as in the top 11 worst states for business. Full of expensive government workers and welfare queens. It's ridiculous.
@@Corkfish1 is it really that bad ? I am thinking about imagination coming from the UK over to the USA and connecticut looks really nice. All the taxes are what we pay over here anyway. So is it really that bad ?
Cory workers CANNOT afford to to live there, and $100,000 is poverty.
Nope. If you have a typical child with zero learni g disabilities or a disability of other sorts then NO Glastonbury schools are not ir. The teachers were good in 80s and early 90s were good but now NOPE
